    Abstract

    Description

    This image was originally created as a book illustration. The title of this illustration is a reference to a poem in Alexander Pope's Moral Essays. The full excerpt, seen below the image, reads as follows: "Boastful and rough your first Son is a Squire, / The next a Tradesman, meek and much a liar; / Tom struts a Soldier, open, bold and Brave; / Will make a Scrivener, an exceeding Knave."
